rtdu Louisiana Purchase Exposition 

1904 



Indiana Building 

and 

Literature and Fine Arts Exhibit 



A Foreword 

THE Indiana Building was designed primarily as 
a club house for the use of Indiana visitors at the 
Louisiana Purchase Exposition, and their friends 
from other states. Its location was chosen with 
especial reference to the idea of rest and social enjoyment. It 
occupies the highest point on the beautiful natural elevation, 
called in the nomenclature of the Exposition, The Plateau of 
States. Large forest trees surround the building, adding much 
to the beauty of the picture of which it is the central feature. 

Following the general lines of the stately French Renais- 
sance, the Architect has allowed himself such liberty as 
seemed necessary to achieve the highest expression of utility 
and simple dignity. 

Wide verandas and graceful terraces, shaded by native 
oaks, suggest comfort and repose. 

From the main reception hall of the Building, a grand 
staircase leads to a beautiful music room beneath a splendid 
art glass dome. At the head of the stairs is a large reading 
room well supplied with the current magazines and news- 
papers. This room is flanked on one side by the Governor's 
reception room and on the other by the room provided 
especially for the use of the Commission having in charge the 
proper representation of the State at the Fair, but so arranged 
as to be available, as is practically the entire building, for the 
entertainment of visitors generally. 

Separate parlors for ladies and gentlemen, offices for the 
President and Secretary of the Commission and a number of 
other apartments, each well adapted to the purpose for which 
it was designed, complete the ensemble of the State Building 
which the people of Indiana have provided for their temporary 
home while in attendance at the Exposition. 



In its furnishings as well as in its architectural features 
and arrangement, the aim of the Commission has been to make 
the Building as accurately as possible express the original 
concept. This included more than the idea of mere convenience, 
comfort or pleasure. At the very beginning it was determined 
that this Building and the things to be associated with it, and 
housed in it, should speak the culture and artistic development 
of our Hoosier life. And so it has gathered within its walls 
the best offerings of our literature and our art, the trophies 
of our civilization. 

The pictures which adorn the Building are the product of 
Indiana genius. Her artists have been lavish of their time and 
thought in contributing to the effect sought. The color scheme 
of the building is the result of their educated taste. The atten- 
tion bestowed upon this subject was quite as close and consci- 
entious as that given the selection of the pictures chosen from 
the large number submitted. 

A collection of the best books by Indiana Authors, includ- 
ing many original manuscripts and illustrations, readily sug- 
gest the position in the world of letters to which we have 
attained. 

The Commission have striven to give the place an atmos- 
phere of home at once refining and stimulating. 

Welcome and rest are synonymous with the whole effect
